Growth, egg production and hatching success of Acartia tonsa cultured at high densities

The present research focused on the effects of A. tonsa stocking density on copepod growth and adult reproduction, specifically egg production and egg hatching success. This is the first study on A. tonsa high-density culture from copepod growth to egg production and hatching. It further provides new insight on the viability of using high-density cultures for egg production and its impact on hatching success, essential for the commercial production of this species
